Thanx!... The bulb definately works, I'll just have to incorporate the scanner psu in my case as well, as i can hardly imagine the bulb running off 5v DC. I was also toying with the idea of using it to make my tft brighter, but I think that it would be pretty difficult. Do you have anymore info (link?) on how to use one of these bulbs for case modding?

Also, the case of the scanner is looking like a good case for my next carputer revision...

It runs off fractional ac amperage at like 10k volts, and you can pickup a stand alone inverter from places like bgmicro.com. Nearly any pc hardware site with a forum is bound to have cases with cathodes, but hardocp is my forum of choice when it comes to that type of stuff. pheatonforums.com also has insane stuff.
